APPENDIX A
APPLICATIONS
LEVEL
It is not suggested to use a microphone plugged directly into the MULTIVERB ALPHA
2.0. Even though the device will function properly with some types of microphones you may encounter level mismatch or level problems. Some type of preamplifier is required since the input sensitivity of most microphones is less than -40dB.
NOTE: Presets may have varying output levels. Output level may be programmed in a preset by using an algorithm such as REVERB or DELAY. Algorithms such as these have a LEVEL parameter which may be set to vary the presets output level. We recommend that you set the front panel sliders for optimum dynamic range and vary the output level of the presets by programming the LEVEL parameter.
For the effects that have the LEVEL control parameter, use this control to adjust for depth, apparent mix level, volume adjustment for each preset as well as normal output level. By adjusting level in this manner, you don't need to adjust the Output Level Control.
To control the overall output level of the ALPHA 2.0 via MIDI, assign an external
MIDI controller to change the DRY and EFX parameters assignable in the programmable Mix. You are able to do this by adding two MIDI controllers to your preset and setting them accordingly. Set one controller to control both the
MIX:DRY and MIX:EFX. Keep the LOW and HIGH Values at 0 and 100% respectively.
Signal level required to trigger the AUTO Record of the Sampler is to input enough signal to light the GREEN LED.
Signal level required to trigger the AUDIO Play of the Sampler is to input enough signal to light the YELLOW LED.
MEMORY
You now have a Utility that informs you how much User Preset Memory has been used or how much memory there is available for storing presets. When you first access user memory there are approximately 5500 bytes (5.5 Kbytes) of space available.
Each time you store a preset more space is used up. As a rule of thumb, a preset uses approximately 30 to 50 bytes. Sometimes the display will inform you there is space available, but you are not allowed to store any more information.
TO DELETE A STORED PRESET, releasing its memory to be used again, you must store a null preset at the preset number you wish to delete. A null preset consists of a blank title and no effects. Presets 116 through 200 are null when you receive your unit or after a factory reset. Preset 100 is a Factory Preset set up to be blank and can be used for this purpose.
